Comment (by yacobean27):

 I was hoping it was going to be something easy. If it's going to be a pain
 to fix, I'll close the case. There's no reason to spend all that time
 fixing it for only a few people that play 1.0. Thanks Sluicebox for all
 you do!

 > This is a very large script patch written by a contributor six years
 ago. The crash is coming from within a script function that the patch
 invents. Unfortunately, no one on the SCI team knows anything about this,
 and I cannot overstate that this patch is mammoth and terrifying.
 Presumably it works in other versions, and there's a 1.0 incompatibility,
 but wow this will take a lot of time to figure out what's going on here,
 and it does not look fun. Don't hold your breath!

 it doesn't need our help.
